Life Size Mirror lyrics

she was gone before a start
always mending broken hearts
making others miserable, not
knowing who she`s hurting
father said:`this day would be,
one for everyone to see`
is this true you`ll follow suits and have
you learned a thing?

It`s just a selfish way to go
it`s safe to say she`ll never know
for every person there`s a whole
life story
waiting to be told
when she is happy it`s ok
but when these people start to fade
then we`ll just watch her self-destruct as she gets old

she put up defensive shields
to walk through all of life`s minefieds
all defined by make-up and a car behind she`s hiding
`father do you have to go,
left me questions, i don`t know`
any answers or ever close the life time
lie was true

she`s gonna move on with her life
and take it one heart at a time
and watch the little girl inside her
wait behind as she goes on
but with this black heart she decides
who she`ll take in and shove aside
until the day she sees that everyone has gone

getting used to people leaving
thinking true love is deceiving
soon she`ll know how lonely it can be.

now was it really worth the pain?
a couple pills make her feel sane
while she lives out the story
written for the part she is to play
with so much shame for her to hide
there`s no more dignity, no pride
then there will only be dark in her light of day

and she will only see a reflection
of her father`s rejection
nothing will change until she breaks
this life,
this life size mirror
